Notes & reviews

Overflow crowd in the outfield behind a temporary fence made ground-rules necessary.
High off RF wall and into overflow crowd; just missed HR
Barry was spiked and required first aid
The ball hopped over the temporary RF fence
Ames fielded Barry's bunt but his throw to first deflected off Barry down the right field line where Murray retrieved it and made a wild throw to second base, the result being that all three runners circled the bases.
Devore: great running catch
Off RF wall and into overflow crowd
Debut game for Art Wilson
Debut game for Stuffy McInnis
